Xilinx Pocket Power Estimator

Reducing power consumption enables designers to decrease costs, manage thermal constraints and reliability, reduce energy cost or save battery power, and reduce environmental impact. Xilinx knows that designers rely on credible examples and powerful modeling tools to steer their product decisions, especially when it comes to power consumption. The Pocket Power Estimator (PPE) is a high-level power estimation application which enables designers to quickly perform what-if power analyses based on specific design scenarios. The PPE app highlights the reduced power consumption benefits of Xilinx 7 series FPGAs, compares Xilinx 7 series FPGAs to previous generation Xilinx FPGA families and approximates the power consumption of competitive FPGAs. Users requiring a more detailed analysis for power supply and thermal planning should utilize the Xilinx XPower Estimator (XPE) spreadsheet and post-implementation XPower Analyzer (XPA) tools.
